We specialize in US tax returns for Americans living in Germany and Germans with US tax filing requirements.
This focused expertise means we understand exactly how German and US tax systems interact, what documents you need, and how to navigate the complexities that come with having tax obligations in both countries.
Founded in Berlin in 2017, we’ve grown from a solo practice to a growing remote team based across the United States. This growth reflects our commitment to serving this unique market well – we continue to build our capacity to handle complex German-US tax situations while maintaining the personalized service that sets us apart from larger firms.
Our team approach ensures you get the right expertise at the right time. Your questions get answered quickly and triaged to the team member with the specific knowledge you need. We’ve built systems that let us work efficiently together, which means faster responses for you – even during busy tax season.
We’re fluent in German and work seamlessly with your German tax advisors. While we don’t prepare German tax returns, we regularly collaborate with German tax preparers and understand how your German tax situation affects your US filings. No translation needed – we can read your German documents directly.
We’re paperless, technology-forward, and aligned with German timelines. We know German tax documents take time to obtain and respect your natural rhythms rather than pressuring you with artificial deadlines. Our processes are designed to make this as easy as possible for both you and us.
We’re committed to creating a supportive workplace for people who have full and rich lives but also want meaningful careers. We primarily hire work-from-home parents who need flexibility but don’t want to sacrifice professional growth. Building this kind of values-driven culture where our team can thrive is central to who we are as a company.
Everything we do is guided by our values: leading with kindness and empathy, seeking solutions rather than creating problems, and working together efficiently so you can get back to your life with peace of mind.
Our Values

We do this by building trust and valuing transparency. We are in a unique position to make a difference in each other’s lives by supporting a work-life balance so that this job sustains us without consuming us.

Work together like a well-oiled machine: We value teamwork and efficient processes. We help each other out and we get our work done as efficiently as possible. We make things as easy as possible for our clients and ourselves. This allows us to get our work done and get on with our lives.
